Multi-Network 5mb Vertical Resolution Sounding Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/631.005

Summary
Interpolated 5hPa vertical resolution radiosonde data from research and
operational sources during the Targeted Observation by Radars and UAS of
Supercells - Left-flank Intensive Experiment (TORUS-LItE) campaign converted
into a common format (EOL Sounding Composite format which is a columnar ASCII
format). The composite includes data from radiosondes from locations around
the central United States. The radiosondes were released by NOAA/NSSL (one
platforms) and NOAA/NWS (19 sites).
